It’s OK…for a gas burner.
My Toyota RAV4 EV gets 124mpg- gasoline equivalent.
Too bad Toyota won’t throw a few more together:(
Can’t wait to see the SmartEV (cause you KNOW it’s coming).
What’s really impressive about this car is how well they fare when you run one into a wall at high speed. Good video on YouTube.

@ OzBenzHead, I used google to calculate the MPG, Here is the link 3.3 litres per 100 kilometres in mpg

Is that 71 miles per US gallon or real (imperial) gallons? If it’s US gallons, then that makes the consumption closer to 85 mpg. Now that’s impressive!

waiting for the new cdi to reach Canada. Since we had the old one, I bet we will get the new. With such a low CO2 emission, I am pretty sure it will be sold in the US
